vocabulary
Just as our basic vocabulary grows and evolves on an almost daily basis, so too does our usage of technical terminology and acronyms.

Example: In recent American history, the president of our once-great nation has been identified by the acronym "POTUS." which of course used to stand for, President Of The United States. However, during the past 6 years, many may not be aware of the subtle change in meaning that has come about with that term.

The current occupant of the Oval Office is still referred to as the POTUS, but the term has become much more descriptive of the man holding this once revered position: POTUS now obviously means, Piece Of Totally Useless Shit.

Just wanted to get your day started right.

Lasting approximately six hours, the German ground campaign against Denmark was the briefest operation of the Second World War.[

However the campaign between Finland + the Soviets was a very different kettle of fish (much to the soviets consternation.) Hitler V/S Stalin ( in diplomacy) is known. The 'could have been ' is frightening.
